Bergkäserei Vorderfultigen is a small alpine cheese dairy located in Hinterfultigen, near Rüeggisberg in the canton of Bern, Switzerland. The dairy processes milk supplied by a small group of nearby farms, where cows graze on the pastures of the Gantrisch region.

Milk is delivered from farms located within a very short distance of the dairy, allowing it to be processed quickly after milking, which is essential for maintaining the quality of raw-milk cheeses. The dairy is known primarily for producing Le Gruyère AOP, following the strict production rules that define this protected designation of origin cheese.

In addition to Gruyère, the dairy also produces regional mountain cheeses such as Fultiger Bergkäse and Gantrisch Bergkäse, which reflect the character of the alpine milk and local terroir. Production remains artisanal and relatively small in scale, with a strong focus on traditional methods and careful maturation.
